Technical Abstract

The present invention relates to a loader control device 20 for controlling a loader 5 which delivers a work W to a chuck 2 of an outer device 1. The work W is delivered by the loader chuck 14 placed at a work delivering position. The displacement of a center position of the loader chuck 14 and the center position of the outer device chuck 2 at the time being is detected by the displaced amount detecting device 31 from the torque of the motors 11 and 12 of the loader 5. The adjusting device 32 adjusts the work delivering position of the loader chuck 14 by an amount corresponding to the detected displaced amount, when delivering the next work.

Patent Claims
3 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A loader control device for controlling a loader to deliver a work to a chuck of an outer device along a X, Y and Z axes in a three dimension space, comprising: a displaced amount detecting means for detecting by a torque of a plurality of motors of a loader, a displacement along the X, Y and Z axes of the three dimension space between a center position of a loader chuck and a center position of an outer device chuck when the loader chuck is placed on a work delivering position and the work is delivered; and an adjusting means for adjusting the work delivering position of the loader chuck along the X, Y and Z axes of the three dimension space by an amount corresponding to the detected displaced amount when delivering a next work.

2

2. A loader control device according to claim 1 wherein the loader operates by coordinate data of the work delivering position specified by a loader program, and based on the displaced amount, by rewriting the coordinated data or adding a revising amount, so as to adjust the work delivering position.

3

3. A loader control device according to claim 1 or claim 2 comprising: during excessive load, a processing means for stopping adjusting the delivering position by the adjusting means when torque of the plurality of motors is larger than a set value.
